  1. Wondering what forms of energy aliens species might use--as biological processes. We use electro-chemical processes, but could other energy transfer work? I mean plants aren't that dissimilar, of course.

    Diurnal and nocturnal poners
    The bat's wings make no sense, anatomy-wise, I was trying to also make them a bit insect-like

  3. "Blogs and other websites are all very well and good, but a project only has ‘weight’ and some greater amount of permanence when it spawns a book, and such it is with Gert’s Furahan thoughts. After teases and promotions extending over more than ten years, I’m pleased to report that Wildlife on the Planet Furaha now exists in hard, physical form, and it was very much worth the wait."

  4. Reading about Lamotrigine and (on IUS and very tiny chance we change minds but) tiny chance of preggo eventually, so I keep clicking and get to reddit.com/r/BabyBumps/comment
    Where I make two reading typos: one, FTM, and two, I read it as "MTF and pregnant" so was happy-excited for her but mostly confused.

    Like, say, CRISPR (or whichever gene tool) to swap an X or Y from a relative or someone close-ish.
    Then 3D print organs from your own cells' (modified) DNA.

    Expensive and experimental? Absolutely. Impossible to ever succeed? Absolutely not.
    [Disclaimer: I failed A Level chemistry.]

  5. SMAUGUST DAY 3 - TEETH

    Based on Otiksimr’s Smaugust prompt lineup

    In and around the forests of Dragamida, the Lanceleaper (Cutlerdontus audax) can be seen engaging in combat with members of its own species, both to impress mates and as a way of bonding with others. These fights employ a wide variety of attack types, mostly revolving around their tusks, with each Lanceleaper slowly developing its own preferred fighting style over the course of its life. One universal, however, seems to be the use of a jumping joust attack performed with the assistance of its wings. These short jumps are really all their wings are useful for, as they are otherwise too small to get the dragon’s fat little body off the ground.

    "I am thinking once again about plausible speculative mammals that would weaponize their parasites..."

  7. /Expedition/ by Wayne Barlowe is back in print! It still ain’t cheap, but my used copy was quite a bit more expensive than this. echopointbooks.com/art/expedit #exobiology #SpeculativeBiology

  8. So as is, there are three established terms that mean "not intersex": #perisex, #endosex & #dyadic.

    I was thinking: why have them all mean exactly the same thing? We could create and pin down definitions that help distinguish how nonhumans are or are not intersex. Also maybe to include/exclude historical eunuchs.

    If you'd like to weigh in on how these terms could be defined, I have a survey here! Everyone is welcome to participate, and input is appreciated

  9. Многие зрители здесь увлекаются созданием собственных животных или даже миров, у кого-то это просто наброски, у кого-то - целые проекты.
    И сегодня с радостью представляю вам один из таких проектов!

    Я начал увлекаться созданием своих миров во всё удаляющемся от нас 2019 году, с тех пор я следил за почти всеми проектами в жанре спек био, я видел и взлёт и угасание этой темы на ютубе и формуах. Постепенно я начал замечать то что многие новые миры шли по одним и тем же шаблонам, давно отработанным Alien Biospheres и прочими проектами в данном жанре...

    Однако авторы упускали одно... Жанр относится к научной фантастике, смысл которой в бесконечном множестве вариаций необычных форм, а этот фантастический дух спек био начало терять, несчётное количество часов было потрачено на споры со спекулятивными биологами из разных проектов... Пока в один момент кто-то мне не сказал: А если не нравится, попробуй сам сделать лучше!!!

    И я принял этот вызов...

    Итак я представляю вашему вниманию новый спекулятивно биологический проект, который удивит вас необычными идеями, и сложными научными (в основном биохимическими) взаимосвязями, которые сплетаются в единую картину нового мира, Мира планеты Рани...

    В проекте есть: Красивые 3д модельки, нарисованные в ручную 2д анимации, а также для тех кто любит биологический и биохимический юмор есть дополнительный бонус: мемы на выше изложенные темы прямо в ролике. Короче можно и посмеяться и узнать что-то новое для себя в плане биохимии и проследить за становлением нового фантастического мира.

  10. cool down and warmup of a couple of my creatures.
    I'll name them one day. But today is not that day.

  11. spec evo troll time! this guy is meant to be a highly derived proboscidean which converged with giant sloths/ chalicotheres/ apes

  12. the second of a series evidently, heres a #lindworm infographic, with some of that 'dragons are an endangered species' alt history world building.

  13. In modern times, most land on the homeplanet is colonized by the Dominion of Tiiliit and the Wiarii Empire, and imported off-planet metal and helium is used to add artificial islands and floating cities.

    Avians tend to use  icons to represent their nations, though the Hotsuuv nations use local cultivated varieties of seal fruit as icons, and the mineral rich south pole uses dots of pigment.

  14. The avian planet’s very slight axial tilt gives its poles a coating of year-round sea ice, whose sifting, dune-like surface plays host to a strange variety of slow growing plants and hardy animals. On solid land, the dominant photosynthetic life is a clade of blue “plants”, and a clade of sessile tube-dwelling “landworms” with black flesh and frond-like appendages.

  15. The tectonics and ocean currents that shape the scant landmasses and climate of the avian homeplanet.

  16. Earth's moon was also likely created by a collision, but the bug ferret moon is much closer in mass to their planet than ours is to Earth.

  17. If you run the opposite direction of the cylinder's rotation it feels a little like running downhill. And vice versa, if you want a challenge.

  18. With bug ferret tactile sign languages, a "spoken word poem" can be a multi-person choreographed pattycake game. If you want it to be.

  19. You might as well ask how many languages Windows operating system speaks. Although, unlike an OS, A.I. will dynamically edit and add languages they encounter with insufficient online resources.

  20. Throwback to a #speculativeBiology project I did for a class as an undergrad at a junior #college. I wanted to theorize what life could evolve on #Europa and I as fueled by a love of #cephalopods and #AlienPlanet and other #speculative projects this was the result.

    It's all very old, so be gentle. Some of these ideas worked their way into some of my more recent work: hpkomics.com/secret/europa/
